Breaking Open the
Word

Our younger youth in grades 3 - 6 have an opportunity for seeking a new and deeper
understanding of the Scriptures. These young people will be in Worship through the reading of the Scriptures, then
be dismissed with a prayer as they leave with their Shepherd to further explore how this impacts their young lives.
During the Liturgical Seasons of Advent and Lent, further study will be given to the meaning of those journeys for
them. They will return to Worship at the time of Offering, or when we celebrate the Sacrament. This new "Within
the Walls" mission with our younger youth will be led by volunteers each Sunday. These Shepherds will help guide
discussion with the youth and grow with them in their understanding of God's word to them.
